Giving Back During the Holiday Season
We are raising money for Heifer Project International by having a winter raffle in the classroom. Each ticket costs 50 cents and each student can sell as many as they wish (as long as they have sold and turned in the previous ten). When the 22nd of December comes around, we are going to draw tickets and win prizes! But, the real meaning of this is to get as much money raised as possible. We are going to give all the money toward giving a needy family an animal that could provide for them. Beatrice’s family was one of many that was helped from this cause.

We are raising money for Heifer Project International by selling tickets to friends, siblings, and family. All of the money goes to helping poor families raise money by donating animals to them. And we are helping, too!

We are raising money for the Heifer project by getting tickets from our teacher (10 of them) then selling them each for 50 cents each. Then once we sell all the tickets it will go to a total for 5 dollars.

Here is the bulletin board students created about the book Beatrice's Goat. They created a story tree using words and ideas from the book.
Social Studies: The American Revolution
We are making these books that include facts about the American Revolution. They also have pictures about the people who fought in the American Revolution and what they were called.
